Gravel in Reagan, TN

Costs vary by gravel type and supplier, but in West Tennessee a single tri-axle dump truck load (about 10-12 cubic yards, roughly 14-17 tons depending on material) commonly runs in the low hundreds to around $800 or more delivered. Price depends on material choice, local pit pricing, distance from the supplier to Reagan, and any fees for next-day delivery or spreading. For an exact delivered price to your address, check availability and get a quote using your zip code on Hello Gravel.

Delivered prices in the Reagan area typically vary by material and quantity; a rough range is $30 to $80 per ton, which is about $40 to $115 per cubic yard (1 cubic yard is roughly 1.3 to 1.5 tons for most gravels). Local sourcing, delivery distance, and seasonal demand affect the final price, so use Hello Gravel's checkout or request a quote to see exact per-ton or per-yard pricing for your address.

A typical tri-axle truck delivers about 10-12 cubic yards. For a 200-foot driveway, coverage depends on width and depth; for example a 12-foot-wide driveway needs about 29.6 cubic yards at 4 inches depth (about 2.5 truckloads) and about 44.4 cubic yards at 6 inches depth (about 4 truckloads). Use your exact driveway width and desired depth in Hello Gravel's material calculator to get precise load counts.

Total cost varies with gravel type, depth, and whether you hire labor for spreading and compaction. As a rough example, a 200-foot by 12-foot driveway at 4 inches deep needs about 30 cubic yards; at $40 to $100 per cubic yard delivered, materials plus delivery could range from about $1,200 to $3,000, with labor or mechanical spreading and compaction adding several hundred dollars more. For an accurate estimate for your project, get a Hello Gravel quote and ask local contractors for spreading and compaction bids.

Two inches is only a light top dressing and is usually insufficient for long-term driveway performance in West Tennessee, where clay subsoils and wet seasons are common. We typically recommend a 4-inch compacted top layer over a 6-inch compacted base (total 8-10 inches) for standard residential driveways under regular vehicle traffic, or at minimum 4-6 inches if you are improving an existing well-drained base. Assess your existing base, drainage, and traffic levels before deciding, and consider adding edge restraints and proper grading for longevity.

Crushed stone road base (often called crusher run or road mix) is usually the most cost-effective and durable option for a driveway base in West Tennessee. Hello Gravel sources materials regionally and can often deliver crusher run or similar road base to Reagan—use our zip code checker to confirm availability and pricing. Keep in mind that aesthetics vary by region, so the appearance may differ from online photos.

Many homeowners in small towns like Reagan can install gravel themselves for smaller areas; tasks include grading, hauling, spreading, and compacting. If you hire a crew, expect labor or contractor rates to vary widely—spreading and compacting might cost a few hundred dollars to over $1,000 depending on job size and equipment; compactor rental for a plate or roller typically runs tens to a few hundred dollars per day. Request tailgate spreading during checkout (driver discretion) or get local contractor bids if you want full-service installation.

For durability and load-bearing, a compactable base like crusher run (road base) is recommended, often topped with 57 stone or crushed gravel for a stable, attractive surface. Crusher run compacts well and forms a solid base that resists rutting, while 57 stone provides good drainage and a cleaner look but can migrate without edging and compaction. For most Reagan homeowners, crusher run base with a thinner top layer of 57 or similar crushed stone balances durability and appearance.

Bulk delivery via dump truck is usually the most convenient for homeowners in small towns, and Hello Gravel's minimum order is 3 tons which helps keep costs reasonable for small jobs. Picking up directly from a local pit can save money if you have a truck and trailer and time, but it requires hauling and handling. Contractors may offer haul-off and install services but add labor costs; compare delivered per-ton pricing and your time/equipment before choosing.

Yes—resin-bound or polymer-modified gravels create a hard, semi-permeable surface and are available in many areas, but they are significantly more expensive than loose gravel. Installed costs (material plus professional installation) are commonly several times higher than loose gravel, often many dollars per square foot versus loose gravel which is typically under $3 per square foot for materials only. Hello Gravel can deliver raw aggregate for DIY resin projects, but for resin-bound installations you should contact local installers for material and labor pricing specific to Reagan.
